phone calls are super stressful aren't they. xD and I've also been trying to make sure to pop in and welcome new users. I would love seeing more people jumping over to welcome people. :] and i mean more than just the normal faces i see over there welcoming people cause i know a bunch do already.
|
yeppers, a few of us have done this all along |
Poet i think you're right we need a thread on how to welcome a new user. Cause i'll be honest all i see when i see new user is teen - and when i think of teen in this day and age i wanna slap some sense into them. They're like zombies lol. I was 17 when i joined gaia and in my early twenties (still stupid) when i joined menewsha. Now turning 32 this year, @@.

*fidgets* i'm only 25 and been on here for 7 years. hehe.... I love menewsha. <3 i think its 7 anyways. days and months and years are a little blurry with toddler life.
I generally just "welcome to menewsha + respond to their first post intro. + offer help with any questions they might have" |
Shadami - pretty much what I do [yes]
|
I've done that for so long though. Doesn't seem to keep many around.
|
I honestly think it is because mene is so slow people feel awkward trying to find their niche when it is busier it is easier to find a place to post |
Yeah that's it. Finding your comfy spot. I've left loads of avi sites for that reason... Just never finding where I fit in.
|
that's why I did not post in mene in the beginning I tried, but was told to go back to gaia! |
OMG, who said that?? How rude!
|
|
The only place your posts offend me, is on your profile haha. Cause I can't see a thing! :P

Roachi - Utilize Control + A to see what you typed and seek and destroy typos [lol]
But yes hummy we used to be a very rude bunch of people... I remember those days there was a big attitude here... but the people were friendlier than other sites so I stayed despite rarely talking. Now we are a very welcoming community, but we still have that reputation we need to break. I think simplifying the rules and making the site seem friendlier would remedy that. Hummy - Perhaps you could talk to a staff about maybe finding which setting that would be. I haven't touched my profile in like 8 years. |
|
An email whenever a new feature worth investigating comes up I'd say yeah.

Email and not just social media for the new features huh? Noted
Hummy I can't help you with profile coding not my strong suit. :3 Glad menewsha wasn't mean when I came around :o |
Roachi - You should make a place for all that slang. Slang is fun to read in various cultures.
Shadami - Yes, because users like me don't use any social media. |

I remember Mene being quite snobbish back then. People were very stuck up back then because menewsha was a "high class site" as they saw it.
We had strict rules, no trolls or spammers, and everything was micromanaged. |
Yeah I remember, I got 2 infractions for doing diddly squat. However I don't remember it being snobbish lol.
Jelly was the bestest!! <3 |
I have no knowledge of ever getting an infraction. But I dunno how to tell.
|
You'd know if you had one, It sits on your account at the bottom of your subscribed threads.
Mine are from 2008 & 2010. From mods who are long gone from the site. For not quoting, twice haha. |
